I started checking out the bank accounts that I have open that I haven’t used in awhile. I found an old account at Virtual Bank that has a referral program. It must be pretty old, since I noticed it still has my maiden name on the account and I got married in 2003. Luckily they didn’t turn my money over for abandoning my account.

Virtual Bank

Here are the features of a Virtual Bank eMoney Market account:

No monthly fees

Link to your local bank

Free online transfers

FDIC Insured

$100 minimum opening deposit

Sign up Bonus

Sign up and you will get $20 deposited into your account (and I’ll get $20 for referring you). Once you sign up you can then refer other people. If you sign up, then refer your spouse, you’ll get a total of $60 between you.

Update: I have removed all the links as they only work one time. I still have referrals, but I will email them to you directly if you’d like to sign up. Contact me to get an email.

Update on November 24, 2009: I am out of referral links. I will let you know when I get more.

I was going to say, “Why do I need another bank account?” Then I read it again and caught the part about “money market account.” So this is interest-bearing, am I right? Too bad I don’t have a spare hundred bucks right now but I’ll try to remember to keep an eye out for this when I do.

I completed the $100 deposit. My balance is now $120 (including the bonus). As soon as I can I’ll move it all back to my normal bank account and close this one out. Another easy $20. Thanks for the link.

i tried one of these links about a month ago and signed up (and funded the acct) they told me i should see my $20 bonus in 30 days. well, 30 days passed and nothing. i contacted the personal rep they assigned to my acct and he says i need the name of the person who referred me and he would send the request for the sign-up bonus to processing. do you want to give me your name on this? if not- thats fine too. I’ll just close the acct and say “i tried”. (don’t know why everyone else’s seemed to work but mine didn’t. used the link on this site . . . ) thanks
